lexical function to provide fully qualified domain name ?

[Willem Grooters]

agreed have this system info suggestion, but there is a drawback. What about the fact a system can have multiple NICs - each configured with it's own IP address and, potentially, it's own name? Even on one address there can be multiple names - and making matters even more complicated, if you're hosting different websites (apache's 'virtual hosts') you may have multiple names on ONE address ("CNAME" in DNS but this is no obligation!)
You may have to end up with running down a list, like F$PID or F$SEARCH.

C'mon Willem,

read the whole thread!

That is exactly what most of the discussion was about!

Proost.

Have one on me.

I agree that adding this functionality will
be useful. I have filed an internal problem
report to track this request. I hope to be
able to implement it for the next version
(Post V8.2)
